We have used a push mower for our yards for the past 10 years. The last place we lived had a miniscule lawn (like maybe 400 sf, really!) and it took about 5 minutes to cut it. Clearly not worth the...
We redid our bathroom last spring--we squeaked in under the deadline for Bathroom Month and there were some snapshots of our redo here on AT. Our bathroom is teeny-tiny, also about 5' x 8', and I f...
Sadly, it doesn't look like they're retractable, but from the looks of the innards they are adjustable. There's a little spindle where you can wind up the extra cord to make it shorter if needed, w...
An oldie but a goodie: the Charlie Brown Christmas CD. I'm a kid of the 70s and "Linus and Lucy" is hardwired into my personal Christmas soundtrack.
I'd love one in black!
Better hope it's edible, then, because if it smells like food, kids are going to put it in their mouths.
There's a reason scented crayons smell like "leather jacket" or "talcum powder...
Have you ever seen those classic Chemex coffemakers? Definitely a little lab style for your kitchen in the morning.
As a chem prof, I love the aesthetics of glassware, too. But I also...
In our town (Seattle), glass is separate from all other recycling. We have an older (blue) version of Ikea's Rationell, I think, to sort our general recycling and glass--two tallish buckets in a sl...
I just did a few calculations about this stuff. The screen size is the measurement of the diagonal, and so square screen size isn't directly comparable to rectangular (16:9) screen size.
These recommendations seem a bit bizarre to me. I live in a small house with small rooms (hence my undying love for AT), and I can't imagine living with a TV in the scales recommended.
Love those pictures!
I have to disagree with ehy2k's comment. My husband and I have done very well with buying properties that were neglected and quite ugly, but with great potential ...
That's a cool sink! We're about to redo a bathroom and will need a sink that's not too deep (i.e., distance from lip of sink to the wall, not the height of the bowl). Does anyone know where I could...
Good grief. Talk about overkill.
For less than 0.5% of that price you could build yourself a cold frame with PVC pipe and 3 mil plastic to cover your strawberries, asparagus, spring b...
Joan, I'm sure you're right about neighborhoods that people already know well. (Although the listings in my neighborhood turned up a few places I didn't know about yet and will probably check out--...
We bought one of the cheapo Heath/Zenith models for occasional use (once a week in the winter months we are the drop-off point for a local CSA). Doesn't work for sh*t. This may be yet another case ...

Good all Doc Bronner's. All one--all one--all one!
That's horsetail, which is awfully invasive and hard to get rid of, once it's in your garden....

Me too (I mean, 404th), please!

As a chemistry teacher, it cracks me up that this is presented in Periodic Table format.
My friend, this is why God created day cares.

Hey, and I just noticed that the graphic up there is in Seattle! Jonathanb, are you a local?
